Mark Baldassare, Jennifer Paluch, Dean Bonner, and Sonja Petek

Full Report Methodology

Some findings of the current survey:

  • Residents (72%) and likely voters (65%) strongly support Governor Schwarzenegger’s health insurance proposal.
  • A majority of Californians (74%) say illegal immigrants who have lived in the U.S. for more than two years should have a chance to keep their jobs and apply for legal status.
  • Hillary Clinton leads Barack Obama (35% to 20%) among likely Democratic primary voters; Rudy Guiliani leads John McCain (29% to 15%) among likely Republican primary voters.
This is the 78th PPIC Statewide Survey and the 24th in PPIC’s Californians and Their Government series, conducted periodically to examine the social, economic, and political trends that influence public policy preferences and ballot choices in the state. It is supported by funding from The James Irvine Foundation.
